AC 2021 - Union and conjunction

AC 2021
Between the Lord's Divine Essence and His Human Essence
there was a Union;
but between the Lord and the human race
there is a Conjunction, through the faith of charity,
as is evident from the fact that Jehovah or the Lord is Life,
and that His Human Essence also was made Life . . .
and between Life and Life there is Union.
. . . A person does not live from himself,
but the Lord in mercy adjoins a person to Himself
and thereby causes him to live to eternity;
and because the Lord and a person are thus distinct,
it is called conjunction.
